Monday - The Nightgown

Today on my drive into work, I was thinking about my favorite blue nightgown with pictures of little snowflakes all over it, and the sarcastic comment that my husband made about it last week.

This nightgown is a few sizes too big on me and it is made out of the same dimpled fabric used to make long underwear. I confess that there is no mistaking it for something purchased from Frederick's of Hollywood. It could further be said that this nightgown has all the allure and sex appeal of a burlap sack. Still, it is very warm and comfortable, and I can pull the extra long sleeves over my hands to double as oven mitts when I take my bowl of oatmeal out of the microwave at breakfast time.

( Comfortable has it's own kind of sex appeal. Or maybe not. )
